Reworlding Barcelona

Walk through the Barcelona of 2050 in a city game using sound, stories and digital tech to imagine better urban futures together.

Reworlding is playful and imaginative, speculative and relational world-building that embraces actions for collective change, do-it-together skills and speculative design to answer the question: when one world collapses, how do we build the next?

Join an urban role-playing game set on the streets of Poblenou, Barcelona in 2050. Melbourne-based artist and academic Troy Innocent leads your party through a three-hour journey through the inner-city, working together to imagine a world of the future. Along the way, take part in encounters with urban play that encompass augmented reality and immersive sound. At the end of your journey, share your stories together in a regenerative urbanism workshop.

Reimagine Cerdà's general theory of urbanism through AI space syntax, disrupted by Rueda's analog play with superblocks, and hack the CityOS through future iterations of Decidim Barcelona. This is the fourth setting for this game, following Collingwood, Brisbane and Melbourne, that entangles people and place through imagination and play. The game design is informed by consultation with longstanding residents, urbanists and designers, emerging communities and policymakers.
